To access the Blogs API, create API credentials in GHL with the required scope (for example, emails/builder.readonly) and grant InvestNext access. Store tokens securely and rotate them periodically.
Connect InvestNext using client credentials or OAuth, then exchange tokens for API calls to GHL. Ensure the app is granted the same scopes so endpoints like blogs and emails can be read and written.
– GET emails/builder – GET emails/builder.write – POST emails/builder – POST /emails/builder/data – DELETE /emails/builder/:locationId/:templateId – emails/schedule.readonly – GET emails/schedule – blogs/post.write – POST /blogs/posts – blogs/post-update.write – PUT /blogs/posts/:postId – blogs/check-slug.readonly – GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists – blogs/category.readonly – GET /blogs/categories – blogs/author.readonly – GET /blogs/authors
Trigger: when a new draft is saved in InvestNext or a new post is published.
Actions: send content via POST /blogs/posts to create or update a post in GHL.
POST /blogs/posts
title, content, slug, status, authorId
Trigger: fetch blog data via GET /blogs/posts or GET /blogs/authors
Actions: pull posts and review them in InvestNext; optionally update via PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
GET /blogs/posts and PUT /blogs/posts/:postId
postId, title, slug, updatedAt
Trigger: updates to categories or authors in GHL to InvestNext
Actions: synchronize GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors data into InvestNext; keep mappings in sync
GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors
categoryId, authorId, name
Zero-code automation: connect publishing workflows without writing a line of code.
Unified content calendar and publishing across both platforms.
Scalable workflows with built-in auditing and error handling.
This section defines the elements and processes for connecting the GHL Blogs API with InvestNext, including endpoints, authentication, data mapping, error handling, and testing.
Application Programming Interface: a set of rules that lets apps communicate and share data securely.
A specific URL and method that performs a function in an API (for example, GET /blogs/posts).
The process of verifying identity and permissions to access a resource.
A callback URL that the API uses to push real-time data to InvestNext when events occur.
Set up a trigger in InvestNext to push new drafts to GHL using POST /blogs/posts and create/update logic.
Pull likes, comments, and shares from GHL and surface analytics in InvestNext dashboards.
Coordinate publish dates and categories via endpoints so content stays aligned.
In GHL, create a new API client and generate access keys for InvestNext.
Assign the required endpoints (blogs, emails) and scopes like blogs/post.write and emails/builder.readonly.
Run test calls, verify responses, and set up alerts for failures.
The Blogs API in GHL provides endpoints to manage content, including blog posts, categories, and authors. This page shows how InvestNext can leverage those endpoints to automate content publishing and data synchronization without writing code. By using the authentication and endpoint mappings described here, teams can streamline publishing workflows and keep content in sync across platforms. The setup enables a clean data flow between InvestNext and GHL, with clear visibility and auditability of changes.
Yes. No-code integration is possible by configuring API calls and webhooks within InvestNext’s automation builder. You can set up triggers, map fields, and define actions that call GHL endpoints without custom code. This makes it feasible for non-developer teams to automate content workflows effectively. Start with basic publish and fetch operations, then expand to updates and category/author synchronization as needed.
Key endpoints include POST /blogs/posts for creating posts, PUT /blogs/posts/:postId for updates, GET /blogs/posts/url-slug-exists to validate slugs, GET /blogs/categories and GET /blogs/authors for taxonomy data. These endpoints cover content creation, updates, and organization, which are central to a blogging workflow between InvestNext and GHL. Depending on your needs, you may also leverage GET /blogs/posts for reading posts and GET /blogs/check-slug.readonly for slug checks.
To test end-to-end, use a sandbox or staging environment to run create, read, update, and delete operations against the GHL Blogs API. Validate responses, status codes, and data mappings in InvestNext. Enable error logging and set up test alerts so you know when a call fails and why. Document your test cases so that future changes don’t break the integration.
Recommended authentication is OAuth 2.0 with token rotation or API keys managed securely. Grant InvestNext the minimal scopes required (for example, blogs/post.write and blogs/post.readonly) and store tokens in a secure vault. Rotate credentials regularly and revoke access if needed.
For failures, implement exponential backoff retries and detailed error logging. Provide meaningful error messages and include identifiers like postId and slug to aid debugging. Consider a retry queue and alerting to catch repeated errors quickly.
Data flow can be monitored in InvestNext dashboards, GHL API logs, and any webhook listeners you configure. Use status codes, response times, and change logs to track health. Set up alerts for 4xx/5xx errors to respond promptly.
Due to high volume, we will be upgrading our server soon!
